I'm waiting for a scan report and call from the doctor.

I usually keep so busy that my mind doesn't have time to dwell on the "what ifs" or "oh no's." I am a person who does not believe in worry ... I believe it causes stress, which is certainly dangerous to your health and could even bring about a self-fulfilling prophecy. I also believe worry accomplishes absolutely nothing except making you miserable. It changes no diagnosis or anything else.

I have trained my brain to quickly recognize if I start dwelling on some "what-if" and to immediately turn to happier, more positive thoughts.

With all of that said, I hope you've been worrying unnecessarily and that all is well with you, BobsProstate.

Oh, yes, I've had that feeling. Waiting is the worst. Hang in there and please let us know how it goes. Sending very best wishes to you.

Yes, that’s a very familiar feeling. I wish you everything good.
